I recently did the same thing. '99 California car 148K miles. Bought it then a month later drove it 4K miles cross country. The things I would check would be:
verify all suspension bolts are tight. No rattling when going over bumps.
Check the oil, is it dark black or a nice amber, does it smell bad?
Let the car idle in warm weather for at least 20 minutes and see if the fans (both of them) come on.
It sounds like you've driven it. if you went over nasty roads you should have been able to hear all rattles and felt whether the suspension was working.
Once I was able to pull the front bumper I was very surprised the car didn't overheat as the radiators were full of junk.
Other than the clutch I don't think theres a lot else you can check.
